New Changes to Bug Reports.

Here is a new change to how the Bug Reports section will be laid out, mainly to help Regalis or other coders on bugs within the game in newer versions.

On the release of a new game version all old threads created will be moved to the newly created "Old Threads" sub forum. The main purpose of this is to ensure that we don't miss a bug in case people think it is a known issue, as well as think it may have already been reported.

Please leave any feedback on this thread, thank you.

An update that has been needed for some time.
This will certainly help the coders with understanding and knowing faster what the bugs and glitches are.

Took some inspiration from other forums relating to games in development.

I will wait until a new version of the game is released and then make the move. Cause right now, as is obvious, there are way too many threads that make finding new bugs hard.

Some of them aren't even bugs; just very shitty luck :laugh:

I doubt there will be some more bugs in the newer version, because there will be added more new materials, doors, etc. and they will probably glitch through the game. I hope the new 096 pathfinding and room spawning won't be scripted in the next version.

Hopefully this results in more people taking this section seriously.

Its mostly people posting stuff we already know in here or giving a bad description with little context. Or something like that.

I'm pretty sure it's because the percentage of users on this forum that program is incredibly low. Since just about every bug is code related, most people just don't understand how much effort is required to figure out what the bug is or what causes it; let alone how to fix it when minimal information is given in a report.

Should someone make a 0.7 bug thread?
